Answer;

Population; physiological modifications at the individual level.

The adaptation of the sled dog best describes adaptation at the population level while the dog exposed to seasonal colder temperatures has physiological modifications at the individual level.

Explanation;

-The bodies of sled dogs are covered with two coats of hair that work together to provide a double layer of warmth. The under layer is very short and the dog sheds it in the spring to keep from overheating during warmer temperatures.

-During the colder winter months, this under layer works as an insulator against the dog's skin to keep his body warm and his core body temperature consistent. This adaptation best describes adaptation at the population level while the dog exposed to seasonal colder temperatures has physiological modifications at the individual level.

How would you describe the relationship that gravity has with mass and distance.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Mass does not affect gravity and distance has an indirect relationship.

Explanation:

The equation for gravity is, g = $\frac{GM}{R^{2} }$

where, G = gravitational constant

M = mass of the planet

R = distance between the bodies (object and center of planet)

so, gravity depends on the mass of planet, not on mass of object

and is inversely proportional to sqaure of distance.

In regions of the cardiovascular system where there is steady laminar blood flow, the shear stress on cells lining the walls of

Lynna [10]

Answer:

$250$ N/m2

Explanation:

Shear stress on cells lining the walls of the blood vessels is equal to $20$ 20 dyne/cm2

In terms of Newton/square meter, shear stress is equal to

$20*\frac{dyne}{cm^2} (\frac{10^{-5}N}{1 dyne} )*(\frac{1 cm^2}{10^{-4}*m^2} )\\= 2.0$ N/m2

Shear modulus is equal to shear stress divided by shear strain

Thus, shear modulus is equal to

$= \frac{2.0}{0.008} \\= 250$ N/m2
